I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Computing at IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, where I lead the Computing for Secure and Intelligent Networks (COSINE) Lab. My work applies artificial intelligence and machine learning to the Internet of Things and future communication networks. Current projects span edge and non-terrestrial networks, wirelessly powered IoT, 6G, the edge–cloud continuum, and digital twins.
Before joining IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, I was an Assistant Professor at BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus and SRM University-AP. I received my MS (2014) and PhD (2021) in Computer Science from IIT Kharagpur. From 2021 to 2023, I was an ERCIM Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute for Informatics and Telematics, National Research Council (CNR), Italy, and a research consultant at the University of Pisa.
I serve as an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking, IEEE Networking Letters, and Scientific Reports. I regularly contribute to international conferences as a technical program committee member and organizer. My profiles are available on Google Scholar, ORCID, Web of Science, and Vidwan.
